Chair’s

Letter

to

Shareholders

Dear

Shareholders,

With

more

economic

indicators

pointing

to

a

broadening

contraction

across

the

world’s

economies,

the

conversation

has

shifted

from

debating

whether

a

global

recession

would

happen

to

considering

by

how

much

and

for

how

long.

Higher

than

expected

inflation

has

made

the

outcome

more

unpredictable,

as

it

has

dampened

consumer

sentiment,

pushed

central

banks

into

raising

interest

rates

more

aggressively

and

contributed

to

considerable

turbulence

in

the

markets

this

year.

Inflation

has

surged

partially

due

to

pandemic-related

supply

chain

bottlenecks,

exacerbated

by

Russia’s

war

in

Ukraine

and

recurring

lockdowns

across

China

to

contain

a

large-scale

COVID-19

outbreak.

This

has

necessitated

increasingly

forceful

responses

from

the

U.S.

Federal

Reserve

(Fed)

and

other

central

banks,

who

have

signaled

their

intentions

to

slow

inflation

while

tolerating

materially

slower

economic

growth

and

some

softening

in

the

labor

market.

As

anticipated,

the

Fed

began

the

rate

hiking

cycle

in

March

2022,

raising

its

short-

term

rate

by

0.25%

from

near

zero

for

the

first

time

since

the

pandemic

was

declared

more

than

two

years

ago.

Larger

increases

of

0.50%

in

May,

four

increases

of

0.75%

during

the

summer

and

fall,

and

another

0.50%

hike

in

December

2022

followed,

bringing

the

target

fed

funds

rate

to

a

range

of

4.25%

to

4.50%.

Additional

rate

hikes

are

expected

in

2023,

as

Fed

officials

closely

monitor

inflation

data

along

with

other

economic

measures

and

will

modify

their

rate

setting

policy

based

upon

these

factors.

After

contracting

in

the

first

half

of

2022,

U.S.

gross

domestic

product

resumed

positive

growth

in

the

third

quarter,

according

to

the

government’s

estimates.

The

recent

strength

was

largely

attributed

to

a

narrowing

in

the

trade

deficit

while

consumer

and

business

activity

has

remained

slower

in

part

due

to

higher

prices

and

borrowing

costs.

The

sharp

increase

in

the

U.S.

dollar’s

value

relative

to

other

currencies

in

2022

has

added

further

uncertainty

to

the

economic

outlook.

However,

the

still

strong

labor

market

suggests

not

all

areas

of

the

economy

are

weakening

in

unison.

While

markets

will

likely

continue

fluctuating

with

the

daily

headlines,

we

encourage

investors

to

keep

a

long-term

perspective.

To

learn

more

about

how

well

your

portfolio

is

aligned

to

your

time

horizon,

risk

tolerance

and

investment

goals,

consider

reviewing

it

with

your

financial

professional.

On

behalf

of

the

other

members

of

the

Nuveen

Fund

Board,

we

look

forward

to

continuing

to

earn

your

trust

in

the

months

and

years

ahead.

Here

the

U.S.

economic

and

conditions,

key

investment

strategies

and

the

performance

of

the

Funds

for

the

twelve-month

reporting

period

ended

October

31,

What

factors

affected

the

U.S.

economy

and

financial

markets

during

the

twelve-month

reporting

period

ended

October

31,

2022?

After

recovering

from

the

pandemic

in

2021,

the

U.S.

economy

weakened

in

2022.

Overall,

2021

gross

domestic

product

(GDP)

grew

by

5.7%

as

the

economy

reopened

with

the

help

of

$5.3

trillion

in

crisis-related

aid

from

the

federal

government,

low

borrowing

rates

for

businesses

and

individuals,

an

increase

in

COVID-19

vaccinations

and

improved

treatments

for

COVID-19.

However,

in

early

2022,

China’s

COVID-19

lockdown

and

the

Russia-Ukraine

war

worsened

existing

pandemic-related

supply

chain

disruptions.

Inflation

increased

more

than

expected

over

much

of

2022,

putting

pressure

on

global

central

banks

to

respond

with

more

aggressive

measures.

The

U.S.

Federal

Reserve

(Fed)

began

an

interest

rate

hiking

cycle

in

March

2022,

raising

its

short-term

rate

by

0.25%

from

near

zero

for

the

first

time

since

the

pandemic

was

declared

more

than

two

years

ago.

Larger

increases

of

0.50%

in

May

2022,

three

increases

of

0.75%

during

the

summer

and

fall,

and

additional

hikes

of

0.75%

in

November

2022

and

0.50%

in

December

2022

(subsequent

to

the

end

of

the

reporting

period)

followed,

bringing

the

target

fed

funds

rate

to

a

range

of

4.25%

to

4.50%.

Volatility

increased

as

markets

considered

whether

the

Fed

could

cool

inflation

without

causing

a

recession.

Additionally,

the

U.S.

dollar

appreciated

significantly

relative

to

major

world

currencies,

accelerating

in

March

2022,

serving

as

a

headwind

to

the

profits

of

international

companies

and

U.S.

domestic

companies

with

overseas

earnings.

The

dollar’s

appreciation

was

driven

in

part

by

the

Fed’s

increasingly

forceful

response

to

inflation

compared

with

other

central

banks,

the

relatively

better

prospects

of

the

U.S.

economy

and

“safe-haven”

flows

from

investors

uncertain

about

geopolitical

and

global

economic

conditions.

In

September

2022,

global

currency

and

bond

markets

sold

off

sharply

on

concerns

about

the

U.K.’s

new

fiscal

spending

plan,

but

recovered

in

October

2022

after

the

plan

was

mostly

withdrawn

and

a

new

prime

minster

was

announced.

By

mid-year

2022,

inflation

and

higher

borrowing

costs

appeared

to

be

dampening

consumer

confidence

and

consumer

spending.

U.S.

GDP

contracted

in

the

first

half

of

2022,

falling

by

an

annual

rate

of

1.6%

and

0.6%

in

the

first

and

second

quarters

of

2022,

respectively,

according

to

the

U.S.

Bureau

of

Economic

Analysis.

However,

the

labor

market,

another

key

gauge

of

the

economy’s

health,

has

remained

resilient.

By

July

2022,

the

economy

had

recovered

the

22

million

jobs

lost

since

the

beginning

of

the

pandemic,

and

as

of

October

2022,

the

unemployment

rate

remained

near

its

pre-pandemic

low

at

3.7%.

U.S.

GDP

returned

to

expansion

in

the

third

quarter

of

2022,

growing

by

2.9%

(annualized)

according

to

the

government’s

second

estimate,

but

the

gains

were

primarily

related

to

trade

balance

adjustments.

The

seeks

to

of

and

income

by

investing

primarily

in

a

of

high-conviction,

stocks

and

employing

with

a

typical

horizon

of

at

least

However,

the

also

if

the

believes

they

will

How

did

the

Fund

perform

during

the

twelve-month

reporting

period

ended

October

31,

2022?

The

Nuveen

Dividend

Value

Fund’s

Class

A

Shares

at

outperformed

the

Russell

1000®

Value

Index

for

the

twelve-month

reporting

period

ended

October

31,

2022.

For

purposes

of

this

Performance

Commentary,

references

to

relative

performance

are

in

comparison

to

the

Russell

1000®

Value

Index.

Strong

security

selection

drove

the

majority

of

the

Fund’s

outperformance

versus

the

benchmark

during

the

reporting

period,

along

with

a

modest

positive

impact

from

sector

allocations.

Stock

selection

contributed

across

seven

of

the

11

sectors,

particularly

among

the

Fund’s

health

care,

financials

and

industrials

holdings.

Overall,

health

care

was

the

greatest

source

of

strength

for

the

Fund

because

of

its

focus

on

managed

care

companies,

such

as

top

contributor

Cigna

Corp.

The

company’s

quarterly

earnings

exceeded

expectations

with

strong

performance

in

membership,

medical

loss

ratio

and

investment

income.

The

Fund

continues

to

hold

Cigna.

In

the

financials

sector,

the

Fund

added

a

position

in

LPL

Financial

Holdings

Inc.

after

the

stock

came

under

pressure

earlier

in

the

reporting

period.

Rising

interest

rates

and

solid

growth

in

net

new

assets

subsequently

provided

a

tailwind

for

the

shares

during

a

challenging

macro

environment.

LPL

Financial

ended

the

period

as

the

sector’s

top

performer.

The

Fund

maintains

a

position

in

LPL

Financial.

Performance

also

benefited

from

the

Fund’s

significant

underweight

in

communications

services,

the

weakest-performing

sector

during

the

period.

The

Fund

found

very

few

attractive

dividend-paying

opportunities

in

this

sector.

The

biggest

driver

was

the

Fund’s

lack

of

exposure

to

Meta

Platforms

Inc.,

which

was

added

to

the

benchmark

during

the

reporting

period.

The

Fund’s

outperformance

was

modestly

offset

by

a

slight

underweight

in

the

energy

sector,

which

was

the

strongest-performing

sector

in

the

index

during

the

reporting

period.

Although

a

position

in

exploration

and

production

firm

Pioneer

Natural

Resources

Company

was

the

Fund’s

largest

single

contributor

during

the

reporting

period,

lack

of

exposure

to

Exxon

Mobil

Corporation

and

Chevron

Corporation

was

the

biggest

drag

on

performance.

In

general,

shares

of

energy

companies

performed

strongly

as

oil

prices

reached

a

seven-year

high,

given

robust

demand

and

the

instability

caused

by

the

Russia-Ukraine

war.

However,

the

Fund

avoided

Exxon

Mobil

because

the

company

continues

to

use

near-term

excess

cash

to

pay

down

debt,

including

plans

to

moderate

dividends

and

share

buybacks

along

with

building

its

cash

balance.

Lack

of

exposure

to

Chevron

was

based

on

the

company’s

shares

trading

at

a

noticeable

premium

to

peers.

What

ended

The

Fund’s

investment

objective

seeks

long-term

capital

appreciation.

The

Fund

invests

primarily

in

a

diversified,

large-cap

core

stock

portfolio

of

both

growth

and

value

companies.

The

portfolio

management

team

will

select

companies

based

on

a

combination

of

value

and

growth

objectives,

seeking

companies

that

meet

criteria

such

as

attractive

valuation

relative

to

other

companies

in

the

same

industry

or

market,

strong

or

improving

fundamentals,

strong

position,

and

an

that

could

stock

within

How

did

the

Fund

perform

during

the

twelve-month

reporting

period

ended

October

31,

2022?

The

Nuveen

Large

Class

A

Shares

at

NAV

underperformed

the

S&P

500®

Index

for

the

ended

2022.

For

purposes

of

this

Performance

Commentary,

references

to

relative

performance

are

in

comparison

to

the

S&P

500®

Index.

The

Fund’s

underperformance

versus

the

benchmark

primarily

resulted

from

security

selection,

particularly

in

the

consumer

discretionary,

information

technology,

and

materials

sectors.

In

the

consumer

discretionary

sector,

shares

of

athletic

apparel

retailer

Under

Armour

Inc.

declined

after

the

company

reported

sales

below

estimates

and

an

unexpected

loss

resulting

from

global

supply

chain

issues

and

Covid-related

lockdowns

in

China.

The

Fund

no

longer

holds

Under

Armour.

In

the

technology

sector,

the

Fund’s

underweight

position

in

Apple

Inc.,

detracted

from

relative

performance.

Apple

Inc.

shares

reached

an

all-time

high

in

December

2021

before

selling

off

later

in

the

reporting

period

following

weaker-than-expected

sales

of

its

latest

iPhone.

The

Fund

maintains

underweight

exposure

to

Apple

because

of

the

company’s

large

weighting

in

the

index.

Also,

the

Fund’s

lack

of

exposure

to

Exxon

Mobil

Corporation

and

Chevron

Corporation

hindered

results

in

the

energy

sector,

more

than

offsetting

strong

performance

from

a

position

in

Pioneer

Natural

most

during

Security

selection

in

the

sectors

was

also

a

source

of

strength

for

the

In

the

health

Cigna

was

a

top

contributor.

The

exceeded

with

strong

The

continues

to

In

added

in

after

came

under

earlier

How

did

For

relative

performance

are

in

comparison

to

the

Russell

Midcap®

Growth

Index.

The

Fund’s

underperformance

versus

the

benchmark

was

the

result

of

unfavorable

security

selection,

particularly

in

the

information

technology,

consumer

discretionary

and

health

care

sectors.

In

the

information

technology

sector,

software

provider

Avalara

Inc.

detracted.

Despite

strong

fundamentals,

the

company’s

shares

sold

off

as

rapidly

rising

interest

rates

drove

widespread

underperformance

across

high-growth

technology

stocks,

particularly

Covid

beneficiaries

like

Avalara.

The

Fund

no

longer

holds

Avalara.

In

the

consumer

discretionary

sector,

the

Fund

experienced

weak

performance

from

YETI

Holdings

Inc.,

a

premium

outdoor

lifestyle

brand.

The

company

has

been

negatively

impacted

in

2022

by

supply

chain

constraints

and

higher-than-anticipated

freight

costs.

Given

the

higher

price

point

and

discretionary

nature

of

YETI’s

products

during

an

uncertain

consumer

macro

environment,

the

Fund

exited

the

position

at

the

end

of

the

reporting

period.

The

Fund’s

most

significant

laggard

was

manufacturing

company

Generac

Holdings

Inc.

Demand

for

the

company’s

products

has

been

negatively

impacted

by

the

housing

market

slowdown.

Given

the

uncertainty

around

the

housing

market

and

expectations

that

new

home

starts

could

fall

in

2023,

the

Fund

exited

its

position

in

Generac

Holdings.

The

Fund’s

underperformance

was

partially

offset

by

favorable

sector

allocations,

led

by

an

overweight

in

the

energy

sector,

which

was

the

strongest-performing

sector

in

the

index

during

the

reporting

period.

Rising

oil

prices,

a

challenging

supply

and

demand

dynamic

and

geopolitical

tensions

drove

widespread

investor

demand

for

energy

stocks,

an

area

that

is

often

neglected

by

growth-oriented

investors.

The

Fund’s

top

performer

was

independent

oil

and

gas

exploration

and

production

firm

Pioneer

Natural

Resources

Company,

which

reported

strong

free

cash

flow

and

quarterly

results

that

topped

expectations.

Pioneer

management

also

reinforced

its

capital

return

messaging

with

large

dividend

increases

and

plans

to

use

excess

for

buybacks.

The

continues

to

for

Strong

security

selection

and

favorable

sector

allocations

drove

the

Fund’s

outperformance

versus

the

benchmark

during

the

reporting

period.

Stock

selection

contributed

across

most

sectors,

particularly

among

the

Fund’s

health

care,

industrial,

information

technology

and

energy

holdings.

The

Fund

also

benefited

from

an

underweight

position

in

communication

services,

the

weakest-

performing

sector,

and

an

overweight

position

in

the

energy

sector,

which

was

by

far

the

strongest

performer

in

the

benchmark.

Several

individual

holdings

in

the

energy

sector

were

among

the

Fund’s

top

contributors

as

rising

oil

prices,

a

challenging

supply

and

demand

dynamic

and

geopolitical

tensions

drove

widespread

investor

demand

for

energy

stocks.

Two

exploration

and

production

companies,

Devon

Energy

Corporation

and

Pioneer

Natural

Resources

Company,

reported

strong

free

cash

flow

and

quarterly

results

that

topped

expectations.

Following

the

favorable

results,

the

Fund

sold

Pioneer

Natural

Resources

during

the

reporting

period

and

trimmed

its

exposure

to

Devon

Energy.

In

the

health

care

sector,

shares

of

biotechnology

firm

United

Therapeutics

Corporation

rallied

in

May

2022

following

the

U.S.

Food

and

Drug

Administration’s

approval

of

Tyvaso

DPI,

a

dry

powder

inhaler;

this

new

treatment

for

pulmonary

hypertension

expands

the

company’s

product

portfolio

and

addressable

market.

The

Fund

continues

to

maintain

its

position

in

United

Therapeutics

and

increased

exposure

during

the

reporting

period.

The

Fund’s

outperformance

was

modestly

offset

by

negative

security

selection

and

an

underweight

position

in

the

consumer

staples

sector

during

the

reporting

period.

Shares

of

home

and

consumer

products

company

Spectrum

Brands

Holdings,

Inc.

detracted

after

its

planned

deal

to

sell

its

Hardware

Home

Improvement

segment

to

Swedish

company

ASSA

was

blocked

by

the

Department

of

Third-quarter

2022

results

also

missed

expectations

and

Spectrum

management

lowered

guidance

because

of

the

near-term

macroeconomic

backdrop.

Given

the

lack

of

near-term

and

deteriorating

fundamentals,

the

sold

its

position

in

in

2022.

underperformed

2000®

for

For

purposes

of

this

Performance

Commentary,

references

to

relative

performance

are

in

comparison

to

the

Russell

2000®

Growth

Index.

The

Fund’s

underperformance

versus

the

benchmark

was

driven

by

unfavorable

security

selection,

primarily

in

the

consumer

discretionary,

communication

services

and

information

technology

sectors.

In

the

communication

services

sector,

performance

was

hindered

by

digital

advertising

holding

Magnite,

Inc.

Shares

were

weighed

down

by

broader

industry

news,

including

declining

digital

ad

spending,

particularly

in

Europe.

Additionally,

a

partnership

between

Netflix

and

Microsoft

weighed

on

pure-play

firms

like

Magnite

while

weak

earnings

from

Snap

were

viewed

as

a

warning

for

the

broader

digital

ad

industry.

The

Fund

continues

to

hold

shares

of

Magnite

given

the

company’s

strong

competitive

position

in

the

digital

ad

space

and

the

stock’s

compelling

valuation.

In

the

consumer

discretionary

sector,

shares

of

Crocs

Inc.

detracted

from

relative

performance.

The

company

acquired

privately

owned,

casual

footwear

brand

HEYDUDE

in

a

$2.5

billion

acquisition

that

included

the

issuance

of

$450

million

in

stock. The

overhang

of

the

newly

issued

shares,

combined

with

deceleration

in

North

American

growth

and

threat

of

margin

pressure

from

rising

inflation,

led

the

Fund

to

close

out

the

position

in

Crocs.

Although

the

health

care

sector

contributed

to

performance

overall,

the

Fund’s

most

significant

detractor

was

BioLife

Solutions

Inc.,

a

biotechnology

tools

and

solutions

provider.

The

company’s

acquisition

of

Stirling

Ultracold’s

deep

freezer

business

pressured

the

stock

given

supply

chain

issues

and

rising

raw

material

costs. The

Fund

sold

its

position

in

BioLife

Solutions

as

rising

interest

rates

continued

to

pressure

higher

growth

companies

across

the

sector.

The

Fund’s

underperformance

was

partially

offset

by

favorable

sector

allocations,

led

by

an

underweight

in

the

health

care

sector,

and

strong

security

selection

in

the

financials

and

sectors.

The

Fund’s

top

performer

was

Matador

Resources

Company,

a

high-quality

oil

producer

in

the

Permian

of

Texas.

Rising

oil

prices,

a

challenging

supply

and

Fund

Performance

Performance

data

shown

represents

past

performance

and

does

not

predict

or

guarantee

future

results.

Investment

returns

and

principal

value

will

fluctuate

so

that

when

shares

are

redeemed,

they

may

be

worth

more

or

less

than

their

original

cost.

Current

performance

may

be

higher

or

lower

than

the

performance

shown.

Total

returns

for

a

period

of

less

than

one

year

are

not

annualized

(i.e.

cumulative

returns).

Since

inception

returns

are

shown

for

share

classes

that

have

less

than

10-years

of

performance.

Returns

at

net

asset

value

(NAV)

would

be

lower

if

the

sales

charge

were

included.

Returns

assume

reinvestment

of

dividends

and

capital

gains.

For

performance,

current

to

the

most

recent

month-end

visit

Nuveen.com

or

call

(800)

257-8787.

Returns

do

not

reflect

the

deduction

of

taxes

that

a

shareholder

would

pay

on

Fund

distributions

or

the

redemption

of

Fund

shares.

Returns

may

reflect

fee

waivers

and/or

expense

reimbursements

by

the

investment

adviser

during

the

periods

presented.

If

any

such

waivers

and/or

reimbursements

had

not

been

in

place,

returns

would

have

been

reduced.

See

Notes

Financial

Statements,

Note

7—Management

Fees

and

Other

Transactions

for

more

information.

Returns

reflect

differences

in

sales

charges

and

expenses,

which

are

primarily

differences

in

distribution

and

service

fees,

and

assume

reinvestment

of

dividends

and

Expense

Ratios

The

ratios

shown

are

The

ratios

shown

reflect

Expense

Examples

33

As

a

shareholder

of

one

or

more

of

the

Funds,

you

incur

two

types

of

costs:

(1)

transaction

costs, including

up-front

and

back-end

sales

charges

(loads)

or

redemption

fees,

where

applicable;

and

(2)

ongoing

costs,

including

management

fees;

distribution

and

service

(12b-1)

fees,

where

applicable;

and

other

Fund

expenses.

The

Examples

below

are

intended

to

help

you

understand

your

ongoing

costs

(in

dollars)

of

investing

in

the

Funds

and

to

compare

these

costs

with

the

ongoing

costs

of investing

in

other

mutual

funds.

The

Examples

below

are

based

on

an

investment

of

$1,000

invested

at

the

beginning

of

the

period

and

held

through

the

period

ended

October

31,

2022.

The

beginning

of

the

period

is

May

1,

2022.

The

information

under

“Actual

Performance,”

together

with

the

amount

you

invested,

allows

you

to

estimate

actual

expenses

incurred

over

the

reporting

period.

Simply

divide

your

account

value

by

$1,000

(for

example,

an

$8,600

account

value

divided

by

$1,000

=

8.60)

and

multiply

the

result

by

the

cost

shown

for

your

share

class,

in

the

row

entitled

“Expenses

Incurred

During

Period”

to

estimate

the

expenses

incurred

on

your

account

during

this

period.

The

information

under

“Hypothetical

Performance,”

provides

information

about

hypothetical

account

values

and

hypothetical

expenses

based

on

each

Fund’s

actual

expense

ratios

and

an

assumed

rate

of

return

of

5%

per

year

before

expenses,

which

is

not

the

Fund’s

actual

return.

The

hypothetical

account

values

and

expenses

may

not

be

used

to

estimate

the

actual

ending

account

balance

or

expense

you

incurred

for

the

period.

You

may

use

this

information

to

compare

the

ongoing

costs

of

investing

in

the

Fund

and

other

funds.

To

do

so,

compare

this

5%

hypothetical

example

with

the

5%

hypothetical

examples

that

appear

in

the

shareholder

reports

of

the

other

funds.

Please

note

that

the

expenses

shown

in

the

following

tables

are

meant

to

highlight

your

ongoing

costs

only

and

do

not

reflect

any

transaction

costs.

Therefore,

the

hypothetical

information

is

useful

in

comparing

ongoing

costs

only,

and

will

not

help

you

determine

the

relative

total

costs

of

owning

different

funds

or

share

classes.

In

addition,

if

these

transaction

costs

were

included,

your

costs

would

have

been

higher.

In

the

financial

position

of

Basis

for

Opinions

These

financial

statements

are

the

responsibility

of

the

Funds’

management.

Our

responsibility

is

to

express

an

opinion

on

the

Funds’

financial

statements

based

on

our

audits.

We

are

a

public

accounting

firm

registered

with

the

Public

Company

Accounting

Oversight

Board

(United

States)

(PCAOB)

and

are

required

to

be

independent

with

respect

to

the

Funds

in

accordance

with

the

U.S.

federal

securities

laws

and

the

applicable

rules

and

regulations

of

the

Securities

and

Exchange

Commission

and

the

PCAOB.

We

conducted

our

audits

of

these

financial

statements

in

accordance

with

the

standards

of

the

PCAOB.

Those

standards

require

that

we

plan

and

perform

the

audit

to

obtain

reasonable

assurance

about

whether

the

financial

statements

are

free

of

material

misstatement,

whether

due

to

error

or

fraud.

Our

audits

included

performing

procedures

to

assess

the

risks

of

material

misstatement

of

the

financial

statements,

whether

due

to

error

or

fraud,

and

performing

procedures

that

respond

to

those

risks.

Such

procedures

included

examining,

on

a

test

basis,

evidence

regarding

the

amounts

and

disclosures

in

the

financial

statements.

Our

audits

also

included

evaluating

the

accounting

principles

used

and

significant

estimates

made

by

management,

as

well

as

evaluating

the

overall

presentation

of

the

financial

statements.

Our

procedures

included

confirmation

of

securities

owned

as

of

October

31,

2022

by

correspondence

with

the

custodian

and

brokers.

We

believe

that

our

audits

provide

a

reasonable

basis

for

our

opinions.

Fund

Reorganization

On

April

27,

2020,

the

Funds’

Board

of

Trustees

of

Nuveen

Investment

Trust

and

the

Funds’

Board

of

Directors

(the

“Board”)

of

Nuveen

Investment

Funds,

Inc.,

approved

the

Reorganization

of

Nuveen

Large

Cap

Value

Fund

(the

“Target

Fund”)

into

Dividend

Value

(the

“Acquiring

Fund”)

(the

“Reorganization”).

On

September

28,

2020,

shareholders

of

the

Target

Fund

approved

the

Reorganization.

The

Reorganization

was

effective

at

the

close

of

business

on

December

4,

2020.

Upon

the

closing

of

the

Reorganization,

the

Target

Fund

transferred

its

assets

to

the

Acquiring

Fund

in

exchange

for

shares

of

the

Acquiring

Fund

and

the

assumption

by

the

Acquiring

Fund

of

the

liabilities

of

the

Target

Fund.

These

Acquiring

Fund

shares

will

then

be

distributed

to

Target

Fund

shareholders

and

the

Target

Fund

was

terminated.

Each

Target

Fund

shareholder

received

Acquiring

Fund

shares

with

a

total

value

equal

to

the

total

value

of

that

shareholder’s

Target

Fund

shares

immediately

prior

to

the

closing

of

the

Reorganization.

Share

of

$1

million

or

more

are

sold

at

net

but

may

be

subject

to

a

contingent

deferred

Other

Matters 

The

outbreak

of

the

novel

coronavirus

(“COVID-19”)

and

subsequent

global

pandemic

began

significantly

impacting

the

U.S.

and

global

financial

markets

and

economies

during

the

calendar

quarter

ended

March

31,

2020.

The

worldwide

spread

of

COVID-19

has

created

significant

uncertainty

in

the

global

economy.

The

duration

and

extent

of

COVID-19

over

the

long-term

cannot

be

reasonably

estimated

at

this

time.

The

ultimate

impact

of

COVID-19

and

the

extent

to

which

COVID-19

impacts

the

Funds’

normal

course

of

business,

results

of

operations,

investments,

and

cash

flows

will

depend

on

future

developments,

which

are

highly

uncertain

and

difficult

to

predict.

Management

continues

to

monitor

and

evaluate

this

situation.

Significant

Accounting

Policies

The

accompanying

financial

statements

were

prepared

in

accordance

with

accounting

principles

generally

accepted

in

the

United

States

of

America

(“U.S.

GAAP”),

which

may

require

the

use

of

estimates

made

by

management

and

the

evaluation

of

subsequent

events.

Actual

results

may

differ

from

those

estimates.

Each

Fund

is

an

investment

company

and

follows

accounting

guidance

in

the

Financial

Accounting

Standards

Board

(“FASB”)

Accounting

Standards

Codification

946,

Financial

Services

—

Investment

Companies.

The

NAV

for

financial

reporting

purposes

may

differ

from

the

NAV

for

processing

security

and

shareholder

transactions.

The

NAV

for

financial

reporting

purposes

includes

security

and

shareholder

transactions

through

the

date

of

the

report.

Total

return

is

computed

based

on

the

NAV

used

for

processing

security

and

shareholder

transactions.

The

following

is

a

summary

of

the

significant

accounting

policies

consistently

followed

by

the

Funds.

87

Compensation

The

Trust

pays

no

compensation

directly

to

those

of

its directors

or

to

its

officers,

all

of

whom

receive

remuneration

for

their

services

to

the

Trust

from

the

Adviser

or

its

affiliates.

The

Funds’

Board

of Directors

(the

"Board")

has

adopted

a

deferred

compensation

plan

for

independent directors that

enables directors

to

elect

to

defer

receipt

of

all

or

a

portion

of

the

annual

compensation

they

are

entitled

to

receive

from

certain

Nuveen-advised

funds.

Under

the

plan,

deferred

amounts

are

treated

as

though

equal

dollar

amounts

had

been

invested

in

shares

of

select

Nuveen-advised

funds.

Distributions

to

Shareholders

Distributions

to

shareholders

are

recorded

on

the

ex-dividend

date.

The

amount,

character

and

timing

of

distributions

are

determined

in

accordance

with

federal

income

tax

regulations,

which

may

differ

from

U.S.

GAAP.

Foreign

Currency

Transactions

and

Translation

The

books

and

records

of

the

Funds

are

maintained

in

U.S.

dollars.

Assets,

including

investments,

and

liabilities

denominated

in

foreign

currencies

are

translated

into

U.S.

dollars

at

the

end

of

each

day.

Purchases

and

sales

of

securities,

income

and

expenses

are

translated

into

U.S.

dollars

at

the

prevailing

exchange

rate

on

the

respective

dates

of

the

transactions.

Net

realized

foreign

currency

gains

and

losses

resulting

from

changes

in

exchange

rates

associated

with

(i)

transactions,

and

the

difference

between

the

amounts

of

on

the

Statement

of

Operations,

when

applicable.

The

currency

exchange

rates

and

changes

in

foreign

exchange

rates

associated

with

(i)

investments

and

(ii)

are

recognized

as

a

component

of

“Change

in

net

unrealized

appreciation

(depreciation)

of

on

the

Statement

of

Operations,

when

applicable.

The

unrealized

gains

and

losses

resulting

from

changes

in

foreign

exchange

rates

associated

with

investments

in

derivatives

are

recognized

as

a

component

of

the

respective

derivative’s

related

“Change

in

net

unrealized

appreciation

(depreciation)”

on

the

Statement

of

Operations,

when

applicable.

Foreign

Taxes

The

Funds

may

be

subject

to

foreign

taxes

on

income,

gains,

on

investments

or

foreign

currency

repatriation,

a

portion

of

which

may

be

recoverable. 

The

Funds

will

accrue

such

taxes

and

recoveries

as

applicable,

based

upon

the

current

interpretation

of

tax

rules

and

regulations

that

exist

in

the

markets

in

which

the

Funds

invest.

Indemnifications

Under

the

Trust’s

organizational

documents,

its

officers

and directors

are

indemnified

against

certain

liabilities

arising

out

of

the

performance

of

their

duties

to

the

Trust.

In

addition,

in

the

normal

course

of

business,

the

Trust

enters

into

contracts

that

provide

general

indemnifications

to

other

parties.

The

Trust’s

maximum

exposure

under

these

arrangements

is

unknown

as

this

would

involve

future

claims

that

may

be

made

against

the

Trust

that

have

not

yet

occurred.

However,

the

Trust

has

not

had

prior

claims

or

losses

pursuant

to

these

contracts

and

expects

the

risk

of

loss

to

be

remote.

Investments

and

Securities

transactions

are

accounted

for

as

of

the

trade

date

for

financial

reporting

purposes.

Realized

transactions

are

based

upon

the

or,

for

foreign

securities,

when

is

available.

Non-cash

dividends

received

in

the

form

of

Generally,

the

right

to

agreements

allows

each

to

offset

certain

with

a

as

well

as

In

Update

(“ASU”)

2020-04,

Reference

Rate

Reform:

Facilitation

of

the

Effects

of

Reference

Rate

Reform

on

Financial

Reporting.

The

main

objective

of

the

new

guidance

is

to

provide

relief

to

companies

that

will

be

impacted

by

the

expected

change

in

benchmark

interest

rates,

when

participating

banks

will

no

longer

be

required

to

submit

London

Interbank

Offered

Rate

(LIBOR)

quotes

by

the

UK

Financial

Conduct

Authority

(FCA).

The

new

guidance

allows

companies

to,

provided

the

only

change

to

existing

contracts

are

a

change

to

an

approved

benchmark

interest

rate,

account

for

modifications

as

a

continuance

of

the

existing

contract

without

additional

analysis.

For

new

and

existing

contracts,

the

Funds

may

elect

to

apply

the

amendments

as

of

March

12,

2020

through

December

31,

2022.

Management

has

not

yet

elected

to

apply

the

amendments,

is

continuously

evaluating

the

potential

effect

a

discontinuation

of

LIBOR

could

have

on

the

Funds’

investments

and

has

currently

determined

that

it

is

unlikely

the

ASU’s

adoption

will

have

a

significant

impact

on

the

Funds’

financial

statements

and

various

filings.

New

Rules

to

Modernize

Fund

Valuation

Framework

Take

Effect

A

new

rule

adopted

by

the

Securities

and

Exchange

Commission

(the

"SEC")

governing

fund

valuation

practices,

Rule

2a-5

under

the

1940

Act,

has

established

requirements

for

determining

fair

value

in

good

faith

for

purposes

of

the

1940

Act.

Rule

2a-5

permits

fund

boards

to

designate

certain

parties

to

perform

fair

value

determinations,

subject

to

board

oversight

and

certain

other

conditions.

Rule

2a-5

also

defines

when

market

quotations

are

"readily

available"

for

purposes

of

Section

2(a)(41)

of

the

1940

Act,

which

requires

a

fund

to

fair

value

a

security

when

market

quotations

are

not

readily

available.

Separately,

new

SEC

Rule

31a-4

under

the

1940

Act

sets

forth

the

recordkeeping

requirements

associated

with

fair

value

determinations.

The

Funds

adopted

a

valuation

policy

conforming

to

the

new

rules,

effective

September

1,

2022,

and

there

was

no

material

Investment

Valuation

and

Fair

Value

Measurements 

The

Funds’

investments

in

securities

are

recorded

at

their

estimated

fair

value

utilizing

valuation

methods

approved

by

the

Adviser,

subject

to

oversight

of

the Board.

Fair

value

is

defined

as

the

price

that

would

be

received

upon

selling

an

investment

or

transferring

a

liability

in

an

orderly

transaction

to

an

independent

buyer

in

the

principal

or

most

advantageous

market

for

the

investment.

U.S.

GAAP

establishes

the

three-tier

hierarchy

which

is

used

to

maximize

the

use

of

observable

market

data

and

minimize

the

use

of

unobservable

inputs

and

to

establish

classification

of

fair

value

measurements

for

disclosure

purposes.

Observable

inputs

reflect

the

assumptions

market

participants

would

use

in

pricing

the

asset

or

liability.

Observable

inputs

are

based

on

market

data

obtained

from

sources

independent

of

the

reporting

entity.

Unobservable

inputs

reflect

management’s

assumptions

about

the

assumptions

market

participants

would

use

in

pricing

the

asset

or

liability.

Unobservable

inputs

are

based

on

the

best

information

available

in

the

circumstances.

The

following

is

a

summary

of

the

three-tiered

hierarchy

of

valuation

input

levels.

Level

1

–

Inputs

are

unadjusted

and

prices

are

determined

using

quoted

prices

in

active

markets

for

identical

securities.

Level

2

–

Prices

are

determined

using

other

significant

observable

inputs

(including

quoted

prices

for

similar

securities,

interest

rates,

credit

spreads,

etc.).

Level

3

–

Prices

are

determined

using

significant

unobservable

inputs

(including

management’s

assumptions

in

determining

the

fair

value

of

investments).

A

description

of

the

valuation

techniques

applied

to

the

Funds’

major

classifications

of

assets

and

liabilities

measured

at

fair

value

follows:

Equity

securities

and

exchange-traded

funds

listed

or

traded

on

a

national

market

or

exchange

are

valued

based

on

their

last

reported sales

price

or

official

closing

price of such

market

or

exchange

on

the

valuation

date.

Foreign

equity

securities

and

registered

investment

companies

that

trade

on

a

foreign

exchange

are

valued

at

the

last

reported sales

price

or

official

closing

price

on

the

principal

exchange

where

traded,

and

converted

to

U.S.

dollars

at

the

prevailing

rates

of

exchange

on

the valuation

date.

For

events affecting

the value

of

foreign

securities

between

the

time

when

the

exchange

on

which

they

are

traded

closes

and

the

time

when

the

Funds'

net

assets

are

calculated,

such

securities

will

be

valued

at

fair

value

in

accordance

with

procedures

adopted

by

the

Adviser,

subject

to

the

oversight

of

the

Board. To

the

extent

these

securities

are

actively

traded

and

no

valuation

adjustments

are

applied,

they

are

generally

classified

as

Level

1. When

valuation

adjustments

are

applied

to

the

most

recent

last

sales

price

or

official

closing

price, these

securities

are

generally

classified

as

Level

2.

Prices

of

certain

American

Depositary

Receipts

(“ADR”)

held

by

the

Fund

that

trade

in

the

United

States

are

valued

based

on

the

last

traded

price,

official

closing

price,

or

an

evaluated

price

provided

by

the

independent

pricing

services

(“pricing

services”)

and

are

generally

classified

as

Level

1

or

2.

89

Investments

in

investment

companies

are

valued

at

their

respective

NAVs

or

share

price on

the

valuation

date

and

are

generally

classified

as

Level

1. 

Repurchase

agreements

are

valued

at

contract

amount

plus

accrued

interest,

which

approximates

market

value.

These

securities

are

generally

classified

as

Level

2.

For

any

portfolio

security

or

derivative

for

which

market

quotations

are

not

readily

available

or

for

which

the

Adviser

deems

the

valuations

derived

using

the

valuation

procedures

described

above

not

to

reflect

fair

value,

the

Adviser

will

determine

a

fair

value

in

good

faith

using

alternative

procedures

approved

by

the

Adviser,

subject

to

the

oversight

of

the

Board.

As

a

general

principle,

the

fair

value

of

a

security

is

the

amount

that

the

owner

might

reasonably

expect

to

receive

for

it

in

a

current

sale.

A

variety

of

factors

may

be

considered

in

determining

the

fair

value

of

such

securities,

which

may

include

consideration

of

the

following:

yields

or

prices

of

investments

of

comparable

quality,

type

of

issue,

coupon,

maturity

and

rating,

market

quotes

or

indications

of

value

from

security

dealers,

evaluations

of

anticipated

cash

flows

or

collateral,

general

market

conditions

and

other

information

and

analysis,

including

the

obligor’s

credit

characteristics

considered

relevant.

To

the

extent

the

inputs

are

observable

and

timely,

the

values

would

be

classified

as

Level

2;

otherwise

they

would

be

classified

as

Level

3.

The

following

table

summarizes

the

market

value

of

the

Funds’

investments

as

of

the

end

of

the

reporting

period,

based

on

the

inputs

used

to

them:

Repurchase

Agreements

In

connection

with

transactions

in

repurchase

agreements,

it

is

each

Fund's

policy

that

its

custodian

take

possession

of

the

underlying

collateral

securities,

the

fair

value

of

which

exceeds

the

principal

amount

of

the

repurchase

transaction,

including

accrued

interest,

at

all

times.

If

the

counterparty

defaults,

and

the

fair

value

of

the

collateral

declines,

realization

of

the

collateral

may

be

delayed

or

limited.

The

following

table

presents

the

repurchase

agreements

for

the

Funds

that

are

subject

to

netting

agreements

as

of

the

end

of

the

reporting

period,

and

the

collateral

delivered

related

to

those

repurchase

agreements.

Securities

Lending

Each

Fund

may

lend

securities

representing

up

to

one-third

of

the

value

of

its

total

assets

to

broker-dealers,

banks,

and

other

institutions

in

order

to

generate

additional

income.

When

loaning

securities,

the

Fund

retains

the

benefits

of

owning

the

securities,

including

the

economic

equivalent

of

dividends

or

interest

generated

by

the

security.

The

loans

are

continuous,

can

be

recalled

at

any

time,

and

have

no

set

maturity.

The

Funds’

custodian,

State

Street

Bank

and

Trust

Company,

serves

as

the

securities

lending

agent

(the

“Agent”).

When

a

Fund

loans

its

portfolio

securities,

it

will

receive,

at

the

inception

of

each

loan,

cash

collateral

equal

to

an

amount

not

less

than

100%

of

the

market

value

of

the

loaned

securities.

The

actual

percentage

of

the

cash

collateral

will

vary

depending

upon

the

asset

type

of

the

loaned

securities.

Collateral

for

the

loaned

securities

is

invested

in

a

government

money

market

vehicle

maintained

by

the

Agent,

which

is

subject

to

the

requirements

of

Rule

2a-7

under

the

1940

Act.

The

value

of

the

loaned

securities

and

the

liability

to

return

the

cash

collateral

received

are

recognized

on

the

Statement

of

Assets

and

Liabilities.

If

the

market

value

of

the

loaned

securities

increases,

the

borrower

must

furnish

additional

collateral

to

the

Fund,

which

is

also

recognized

on

the

Statement

of

Assets

and

Liabilities.

Securities

out

on

loan

are

subject

to

termination

at

any

time

at

the

option

of

the

borrower

or

the

Fund.

Upon

termination,

the

borrower

is

required

to

return

to

the

Fund

securities

identical

to

the

securities

loaned.

During

the

term

of

the

loan,

the

Fund

bears

the

market

risk

with

respect

to

the

investment

of

collateral

and

the

risk

that

the

Agent

may

default

on

its

contractual

obligations

to

the

Fund.

The

Agent

bears

the

risk

that

the

borrower

may

default

on

its

obligation

to

return

the

loaned

securities

as

the

Agent

is

contractually

obligated

to

indemnify

the

Fund

if

at

the

time

of

a

default

by

a

borrower

some

or

all

of

the

loan

securities

have

not

been

returned.

As

the

Transactions

Long-term

purchases

and

sales

(excluding investments

purchased

with

collateral

from

securities

lending,

where

applicable)

during

the

current fiscal

period

were

as

follows:

The

Funds

may

purchase

securities

on

a

when-issued

or

delayed-delivery

basis.

Securities

purchased

on

a

when-issued

or

basis

may

have

extended

periods;

interest

income

is

not

accrued

until

settlement

date.

Any

securities

so

purchased

are

subject

to

market

fluctuation

during

this

period.

The

Funds

have

earmarked

securities

in

their

portfolios

with

a

current

value

at

least

equal

to

the

amount

of

the

when-issued/

purchase

commitments.

If

a

Fund

has

outstanding

when-issued/delayed-delivery

purchases

commitments

as

of

the

end

of

the

reporting

period,

such

amounts

are

recognized

on

the

Statement

of

Investments

in

Derivatives

Each

Fund

is

authorized

to

invest

in

certain

derivative

instruments.

The

Funds

record

derivative

instruments

at

fair

value,

with

changes

in

fair

value

recognized

on

the

Statement

of

Operations,

when

applicable.

Even

though

the

Funds’

investments

in

derivatives

may

represent

economic

hedges,

they

are

not

considered

to

be

hedge

transactions

for

financial

reporting

purposes.

Although

the

Funds

are

authorized

to

invest

in

derivative

instruments,

and

may

do

so

in

the

future,

they

did

not

make

any

such

investments

during

the

current

fiscal

period.

Market

and

Counterparty

Credit

Risk

In

the

normal

course

of

business

each

Fund

may

invest

in

financial

instruments

and

enter

into

financial

transactions

where

risk

of

potential

loss

exists

due

to

changes

in

the

market

(market

risk)

or

failure

of

the

other

party

to

the

transaction

to

perform

(counterparty

credit

risk).

The

potential

loss

could

exceed

the

value

of

the

financial

assets

recorded

on

the

financial

statements.

Financial

assets,

which

potentially

expose

each

Fund

to

counterparty

credit

risk,

consist

principally

of

cash

due

from

counterparties

on

forward,

option

and

swap

transactions,

when

applicable.

The

extent

of

each

Fund’s

exposure

to

counterparty

credit

risk

in

respect

to

these

financial

assets

approximates

their

carrying

value

as

recorded

on

the

Statement

of

Assets

and

Liabilities.

Each

Fund

helps

manage

counterparty

credit

risk

by

entering

into

agreements

only

with

counterparties

the

Adviser

believes

have

the

financial

resources

to

honor

their

obligations

and

by

having

the

Adviser

monitor

the

financial

stability

of

the

counterparties.

Additionally,

counterparties

may

be

required

to

pledge

collateral

daily

(based

on

the

daily

valuation

of

the

financial

asset)

on

behalf

of

each

Fund

with

a

value

approximately

equal

to

the

amount

of

any

unrealized

gain

above

a

pre-determined

threshold.

Reciprocally,

when

each

Fund

has

an

unrealized

loss,

the

Funds

have

instructed

the

custodian

to

pledge

assets

of

the

Funds

as

collateral

with

a

value

approximately

equal

to

the

amount

of

the

unrealized

loss

above

a

pre-determined

threshold.

Collateral

pledges

are

monitored

and

subsequently

adjusted

if

and

when

the

valuations

fluctuate,

either

up

or

down,

by

at

least

the

predetermined

threshold

amount.

Income

Tax

Information

Each

Fund

is

a

separate

taxpayer

for

federal

income

tax

purposes.

Each

Fund

intends

to

distribute

substantially

all

of

its

net

investment

income

and

net

capital

gains

to

shareholders

and

otherwise

comply

with

the

requirements

of

Subchapter

M

of

the

Internal

Revenue

Code

applicable

to

regulated

investment

companies.

Therefore,

no

federal

income

tax

provision

is

required.

Each

Fund

files

income

tax

returns

in

U.S.

federal

and

applicable

state

and

local

jurisdictions.

A

Fund's

federal

income

tax

returns

are

generally

subject

to

examination

for

a

period

of

three

fiscal

years

after

being

filed.

State

and

local

tax

returns

may

be

subject

to

examination

for

an

additional

period

of

time

depending

on

the

jurisdiction.

Management

has

analyzed

each

Fund's

tax

positions

taken

for

all

open

tax

years

and

has

concluded

that

no

provision

for

income

tax

is

required

in

the

Fund's

financial

statements.

Differences

between

amounts

for

financial

statement

and

federal

income

tax

purposes

are

primarily

due

to

timing

differences

in

recognizing

gains

and

losses

on

investment

transactions.

Temporary

Fees

Each

Fund’s

management

fee

compensates

the

Adviser

for

the

overall

investment

advisory

and

administrative

services

and

general

office

facilities.

The

Sub-Adviser

is

compensated

for

its

services

to

the

Funds

from

the

management

fees

paid

to

the

Adviser.

Each

Fund’s

management

fee

consists

of

two

components

–

a

fund-level

fee,

based

only

on

the

amount

of

assets

within

each

individual

Fund,

and

a

complex-level

fee,

based

on

the

aggregate

amount

of

all

eligible

fund

assets

managed

by

the

Adviser.

This

pricing

structure

enables

each

Fund’s

shareholders

to

benefit

from

growth

in

the

assets

within

their

respective

Fund

as

well

as

from

growth

in

the

amount

of

complex-wide

assets

managed

by

the

Notes

(continued)

The

annual

complex-level

fee,

payable

monthly,

for

each

Fund

is

determined

by

taking

the

complex-level

free

rate,

which

is

based

on

the

aggregate

amount

of

"eligible

assets"

of

all

Nuveen

funds

as

set

forth

in

the

schedule

below,

and

making,

as

appropriate,

an

upward

adjustment

to

that

rate

based

upon

the

percentage

of

the

particular

fund's

assets

that

are

not

"eligible

assets".

The

complex-level

fee

schedule

for

each

Fund

is

as

follows:

*

The

complex-level

fee

is

calculated

based

upon

the

aggregate

daily

“eligible

assets”

of

all

Nuveen

open-end

and

closed-end

funds.

Eligible

assets

do

not

include

assets

attributable

to

investments

in

other

Nuveen

funds

or

assets

in

excess

of

a

determined

amount

(originally

$2

billion)

added

to

the

Nuveen

fund

complex

in

connection

with

the

Adviser’s

assumption

of

the

management

of

the

former

First

American

Funds

effective

January

1,

2011,

but

do

include

certain

assets

of

certain

Nuveen

funds

that

were

reorganized

into

funds

advised

by

an

affiliate

of

the

Adviser

during

the

2019

calendar

year.

Eligible

assets

include

closed-end

fund

assets

managed

by

the

Adviser

that

are

attributable

to

certain

types

of

leverage.

For

these

purposes,

leverage

includes

the

closed-end

funds’

use

of

preferred

stock

and

borrowings

and

certain

investments

in

the

residual

interest

certificates

(also

called

inverse

floating

rate

securities)

in

tender

option

bond

(TOB)

trusts,

including

the

portion

of

assets

held

by

a

TOB

trust

that

has

been

effectively

financed

by

the

trust’s

issuance

of

floating

rate

securities,

subject

to

an

agreement

by

the

Adviser

as

to

certain

funds

to

limit

the

amount

of

such

assets

for

determining

eligible

assets

in

certain

circumstances.

As

of

October

31,

2022,

the

complex-level

fee

rate

for

each

Fund

was

as

follows:

The

Adviser

has

agreed

to

waive

fees

and/or

reimburse

expenses

(“Expense

Cap”)

of

the

Funds

so

that

the

total

annual

Fund

operating

expenses

(excluding

12b-1

distribution

and/or

service

fees,

interest

expenses,

taxes,

acquired

fund

fees

and

expenses,

fees

incurred

in

acquiring

and

disposing

of

portfolio

securities

and

extraordinary

expenses)

do

not

exceed

the

average

daily

net

assets

of

any

class

of

Fund

shares

in

the

amounts

and

for

the

time

period

stated

in

the

following

table.

However,

because

Class

R6

Shares

are

not

subject

to

sub-transfer

agent

and

similar

fees,

the

total

annual

fund

operating

expenses

for

the

Class

R6

Shares

will

not

be

less

than

the

expense

limitation.

The

expense

limitation

expiring

July

31,

2024,

may

be

terminated

or

modified

prior

to

that

date

only

with

the

approval

Borrowing

Arrangements

Committed

Line

of

Credit

The

Funds,

along

with

certain

other

funds

managed

by

the

Adviser

(“Participating

Funds”),

have

established

a

364-day,

$2.700

billion

standby

credit

facility

with

a

group

of

lenders,

under

which

the

Participating

Funds

may

borrow

for

temporary

purposes

(other

than

on-going

leveraging

for

investment

purposes).

Each

Participating

Fund

is

allocated

a

designated

proportion

of

the

facility’s

capacity

(and

its

associated

costs,

as

described

below)

based

upon

a

multi-factor

assessment

of

the

likelihood

and

frequency

of

its

need

to

draw

on

the

facility,

the

size

of

the

Fund

and

its

anticipated

draws,

and

the

potential

importance

of

such

draws

to

the

operations

and

well-being

of

the

Fund,

relative

to

those

of

the

other

Funds.

A

Fund

may

effect

draws

on

the

facility

in

excess

of

its

designated

capacity

if

and

to

the

extent

that

other

Participating

Funds

have

undrawn

capacity.

The

credit

facility

expires

in

June

2023

unless

extended

or

renewed.

The

credit

facility

has

the

following

terms:

0.15%

per

annum

on

unused

commitment

amounts

and

a

drawn

interest

rate

equal

to

the

higher

of

(a)

OBFR

(Overnight

Bank

Funding

Rate)

plus

1.20%

per

annum

or

(b)

the

Fed

Funds

Effective

Rate

plus

1.20%

per

annum

on

amounts

borrowed.

The

Participating

Funds

also

incurred

a

0.05%

upfront

fee

on

the

increased

commitments

from

select

lenders.

Interest

expense

incurred

by

the

Participating

Funds,

when

applicable,

is

recognized

as

a

component

of

“Interest

expense”

on

the

Statement

of

Operations.

Participating

Funds

paid

administration,

legal

and

arrangement

fees,

which

are

recognized

as

a

component

of

“Interest

expense”

on

the

Statement

of

Operations,

and

along

with

commitment

fees,

have

been

allocated

among

such

Participating

Funds

based

upon

the

relative

proportions

of

the

facility’s

aggregate

capacity

reserved

for

them

and

other

factors

deemed

relevant

by

the

Adviser

and

the

Board

of

each

Participating

Fund.

During

the

current

fiscal

period,

none

of

the

Funds

utilized

facility.

Liquidity

Risk

Management

Program

(Unaudited)

Discussion

of

the

operation

and

effectiveness

of

the

Funds’

liquidity

risk

management

program

In

compliance

with

Rule

22e-4

under

the

Investment

Company

Act

of

1940,

as

amended

(the

“Liquidity

Rule”),

each

Fund

covered

in

this

Report

the

“Funds”)

has

adopted

and

implemented

a

liquidity

risk

management

program

(the

“Program”),

which

is

designed

to

manage

the

Fund’s

liquidity

risk.

The

Program

consists

of

various

protocols

for

assessing

and

managing

each

Fund’s

liquidity

risk.

The

Funds’

Board

of

Trustees

previously

designated

Nuveen

Fund

Advisors,

LLC,

the

Funds’

investment

adviser,

as

the

Administrator

of

the

Program.

The

adviser’s

Liquidity

Monitoring

and

Analysis

Team

(“LMAT”)

carries

out

day-to-day

Program

management

with

oversight

by

the

adviser’s

Liquidity

Oversight

Sub-Committee

(the

LOSC”).

The

LOSC

is

composed

of

personnel

from

the

adviser

and

Teachers

Advisors,

LLC,

an

affiliate

of

the

adviser.

At

a

May

23-25,

2022

meeting

of

the

Board,

the

Administrator

provided

the

Board

with

a

written

report

addressing

the

Program’s

operation,

adequacy

and

effectiveness

of

implementation

for

calendar

year

2021

(the

“Review

Period”),

as

required

under

the

Liquidity

Rule.

The

report

noted

that

the

Program

has

been

and

continues

to

be

adequately

and

effectively

implemented

to

monitor

and

(as

applicable)

respond

to

each

Fund’s

liquidity

developments.

In

accordance

with

the

Program,

the

LMAT

assesses

each

Fund’s

liquidity

risk

no

less

frequently

than

annually

based

on

various

factors,

such

as

(1)

the

Fund’s

investment

strategy

and

the

liquidity

of

portfolio

investments,

(ii)

cash

flow

projections,

and

(ii)

holdings

of

cash

and

cash

equivalents,

borrowing

arrangements,

and

other

funding

sources.

Certain

factors

are

considered

under

both

normal

and

reasonably

foreseeable

stressed

conditions.

Each

Fund

portfolio

investment

is

classified

into

one

of

four

liquidity

categories

(including

the

most

liquid,

“Highly

Liquid”,

and

the

least

liquid,

“lliquid”,

discussed

below),

The

classification

is

based

on

a

determination

of

how

long

it

is

reasonably

expected

to

take

to

convert

the

investment

into

cash,

or

sell

or

dispose

of

the

investment,

in

current

market

conditions

without

significantly

changing

the

market

value

of

the

investment

Liquidity

classification

determinations

take

into

account

various

market,

trading,

and

investment-specific

considerations,

as

well

as

market

depth,

and

use

third-

party

vendor

data.

Any

Fund

that

does

not

primarily

hold

highly

liquid

investments

must,

among

other

things,

determine

a

minimum

percentage

of

Fund

assets

that

must

be

invested

in

highly

liquid

investments

(a

“Highly

Liquid

Investment

Minimum”).

During

the

Review

Period,

each

Fund

primarily

held

Highly

Liquid

investments

and

therefore

was

exempt

from

the

requirement

to

adopt

a

Highly

Liquid

Investment

Minimum

and

to

comply

with

the

related

requirements

under

the

Liquidity

Rule.

The

Liquidity

Rule

also

limits

a

Fund’s

investments

in

Illiquid

investments.

Specifically,

the

Liquidity

Rule

prohibits

a

Fund

from

acquiring

Illiquid

investments

if

doing

so

would

result

in

the

Fund

holding

more

than

15%

of

its

net

assets

in

illiquid

investments,

and

requires

certain

reporting

to

the

Fund

Board

and

the

Securities

and

Exchange

Commission

any

time

a

Fund’s

holdings

of

Illiquid

investments

exceeds

15%

of

net

assets.

During

the

Review

Period,

no

Fund

exceeded

the

15%

limit

on

Illiquid

investments.

23-25,

2022

(the

“May

Meeting”),

the

Board

of

Directors

(the

“Board”

and

each

Director,

a

“Board

Member”)

of

the

Funds,

which

is

comprised

entirely

of

Board

Members

who

are

not

“interested

persons”

(as

defined

under

the

Investment

Company

Act

of

1940

(the

“1940

Act”))

(the

“Independent

Board

Members”),

approved,

for

each

Fund,

the

renewal

of

the

management

agreement

(each,

an

“Investment

Management

Agreement”)

with

Nuveen

Fund

Advisors,

LLC

(the

“Adviser”)

pursuant

to

which

the

Adviser

serves

as

investment

adviser

to

such

Fund

and

the

sub-advisory

agreement

(each,

a

“Sub-Advisory

Agreement”)

with

Nuveen

Asset

Management,

LLC

(the

“Sub-Adviser”)

pursuant

to

which

the

Sub-Adviser

serves

as

the

sub-adviser

to

such

Fund

for

an

additional

one-year

term.

As

the

Board

is

comprised

of

all

Independent

Board

Members,

the

references

to

the

Board

and

the

Independent

Board

Members

are

interchangeable.

Following

up

to

an

initial

two-year

period,

the

Board

considers

the

renewal

of

each

Investment

Management

Agreement

and

Sub-Advisory

Agreement

on

behalf

of

the

applicable

Fund

on

an

annual

basis.

The

Investment

Management

Agreements

and

Sub-Advisory

Agreements

are

collectively

referred

to

as

the

“Advisory

Agreements,”

and

the

Adviser

and

the

Sub-Adviser

are

collectively,

the

“Fund

Advisers”

and

each,

a

“Fund

Adviser.”

The

Board

has

established

various

standing

committees

composed

of

various

Independent

Board

Members

that

are

assigned

specific

responsibilities

to

enhance

the

effectiveness

of

the

Board’s

oversight

and

decision

making.

Throughout

the

year,

the

Board

and

its

committees

meet

regularly

and,

at

these

meetings,

receive

regular

and/or

special

reports

that

cover

an

extensive

array

of

topics

and

information

that

are

relevant

to

the

Board’s

annual

consideration

of

the

renewal

of

the

advisory

agreements

for

the

Nuveen

funds.

Such

information

may

address,

among

other

things,

fund

performance

and

risk

information;

the

Adviser’s

strategic

plans;

product

initiatives

for

various

funds;

the

review

of

the

funds

and

investment

teams;

compliance,

regulatory

and

the

various

sub-advisers

to

the

Nuveen

funds;

of

distributions;

valuation

of

securities;

fund

expenses;

payments

to

financial

intermediaries,

including

12b-1

fees

and

sub-transfer

agency

fees,

if

applicable;

securities

lending;

liquidity

management;

and

overall

market

and

regulatory

developments.

The

Board

also

seeks

to

meet

periodically

with

the

Nuveen

funds’

sub-advisers

and/or

portfolio

teams,

when

feasible.

The

Board

further

meets,

among

other

things,

to

specifically

consider

the

annual

renewal

of

the

advisory

agreements

for

the

Nuveen

funds.

In

connection

with

its

annual

consideration

of

the

advisory

agreements

for

the

Nuveen

funds,

the

Board,

through

its

independent

legal

counsel,

requested

and

received

extensive

materials

and

information

prepared

specifically

for

its

review

of

such

advisory

agreements

by

the

Adviser

and

by

Broadridge

investment

policies);

a

of

indirect

benefits

received

by

the

Adviser

and

the

sub-advisers

as

a

result

of

their

relationships

with

the

Nuveen

funds.

The

information

prepared

specifically

for

the

annual

review

supplemented

the

information

provided

to

the

Board

and

its

committees

and

the

evaluations

of

the

Nuveen

funds

by

the

Board

and

its

committees

during

the

year.

The

Board’s

review

of

the

advisory

agreements

for

the

Nuveen

funds

is

based

on

all

the

information

provided

to

the

Board

and

its

committees

throughout

the

year

as

well

as

the

information

prepared

specifically

with

respect

to

the

annual

review

of

such

advisory

agreements.

In

continuing

its

practice,

the

Board

met

prior

to

the

May

Meeting

to

begin

its

considerations

of

the

renewal

of

the

Advisory

Agreements.

Accordingly,

on

April

13-14,

2022

(the

“April

Meeting”),

the

Board

met

to

review

and

discuss,

in

part,

the

performance

of

the

Nuveen

funds

and

the

Adviser’s

evaluation

of

each

sub-adviser

to

the

Nuveen

funds

and/or

its

investment

teams.

At

the

April

Meeting,

the

Board

Members

asked

questions

and

requested

additional

information

that

was

provided

for

the

May

Meeting.

The

Independent

Board

Members

considered

the

review

of

the

advisory

agreements

for

the

Nuveen

funds

to

be

an

ongoing

process

and

employed

the

accumulated

information,

knowledge

and

experience

the

Board

Members

had

gained

during

their

tenure

on

the

boards

governing

the

Nuveen

funds

and

working

with

the

Adviser

and

sub-advisers

in

their

review

of

the

advisory

agreements.

The

contractual

arrangements

are

a

result

of

multiple

years

of

review,

negotiation

and

information

provided

in

connection

with

the

boards’

annual

review

of

the

Nuveen

funds’

advisory

arrangements

and

oversight

of

the

Nuveen

funds.

The

Independent

Board

Members

were

advised

by

independent

legal

counsel

during

the

annual

review

process

as

well

as

throughout

the

year,

including

meeting

in

executive

sessions

with

such

counsel

at

which

no

representatives

from

the

Adviser

or

the

Sub-Adviser

were

present.

In

connection

with

their

annual

review,

the

Independent

Board

Members

also

received

a

memorandum

from

independent

legal

counsel

outlining

their

fiduciary

duties

and

legal

standards

in

reviewing

the

Advisory

Agreements,

including

guidance

from

court

cases

evaluating

advisory

fees.

The

Board’s

decision

to

renew

the

Advisory

Agreements

was

not

based

on

a

single

identified

factor,

but

rather

the

decision

reflected

the

comprehensive

consideration

of

all

the

information

provided

to

the

Board

and

its

committees

throughout

the

year

as

well

as

the

materials

prepared

specifically

in

connection

with

the

renewal

process.

Each

Board

Member

may

have

attributed

different

levels

of

importance

to

the

various

factors

and

information

considered

in

connection

with

the

approval

process

and

may

place

different

emphasis

on

the

relevant

information

year

to

year

in

light

of,

among

other

things,

changing

market

and

economic

conditions.

A

summary

of

the

principal

factors

and

information,

but

not

all

the

factors,

the

Board

considered

in

deciding

to

renew

the

Advisory

Agreements

is

set

forth

below.

(Unaudited)

(continued)

A.

Nature,

Extent

and

Quality

of

Services

In

evaluating

the

renewal

of

the

Advisory

Agreements,

the

Independent

Board

Members

received

and

considered

information

regarding

the

nature,

extent

and

quality

of

the

applicable

Fund

Adviser’s

services

provided

to

the

respective

Fund

with

particular

focus

on

the

services

and

enhancements

to

such

services

provided

during

the

last

year.

The

Independent

Board

Members

considered

the

Investment

Management

Agreements

and

the

Sub-Advisory

Agreements

separately

in

the

course

of

their

review.

With

this

approach,

they

considered

the

respective

roles

of

the

Adviser

and

the

Sub-Adviser

in

providing

services

to

the

Funds.

The

Board

recognized

that

the

Nuveen

funds

operate

in

a

highly

regulated

industry

and,

therefore,

the

Adviser

has

provided

a

wide

array

of

management,

oversight

and

administrative

services

to

manage

and

operate

the

funds,

and

the

scope

and

complexity

of

these

services

have

expanded

over

time

as

a

result

of,

among

other

things,

regulatory,

market

and

other

developments.

The

Board

accordingly

considered

the

Adviser’s

dedication

of

extensive

resources,

time,

people

and

capital

employed

to

support

and

manage

the

Nuveen

funds

as

well

as

the

Adviser’s

continued

program

of

developing

improvements

and

innovations

for

the

benefit

of

the

funds

and

shareholders

and

to

meet

the

ever

increasing

regulatory

requirements

applicable

to

the

funds.

In

this

regard,

the

Board

received

and

reviewed

information

regarding,

among

other

things,

the

Adviser’s

investment

oversight

responsibilities,

regulatory

and

compliance

services,

administrative

duties

and

other

services.

The

Board

considered

the

Adviser’s

investment

oversight

team’s

extensive

services

in

overseeing

the

various

sub-advisers

to

the

Nuveen

funds;

evaluating

fund

performance;

and

preparing

reports

to

the

Board

addressing,

among

other

things,

fund

performance,

market

conditions,

investment

team

matters,

product

developments

and

management

proposals.

The

Board

further

recognized

the

range

of

services

the

various

teams

of

the

Adviser

provided

including,

but

not

limited

to,

overseeing

operational

and

risk

management;

managing

liquidity;

overseeing

the

daily

valuation

process;

and

managing

distributions

in

seeking

to

deliver

long-term

fund

earnings

to

shareholders

consistent

with

the

respective

Nuveen

fund’s

product

design

and

positioning.

The

Board

also

considered

the

structure

of

investment

personnel

compensation

of

each

Fund

Adviser

and

whether

the

structure

provides

appropriate

incentives

to

attract

and

maintain

qualified

personnel

and

to

act

in

the

best

interests

of

the

respective

Nuveen

fund.

The

Board

further

recognized

that

the

Adviser’s

compliance

and

regulatory

functions

were

integral

to

the

investment

management

of

the

Nuveen

funds.

The

Board

recognized

such

services

included,

but

were

not

limited

to,

managing

compliance

policies;

monitoring

compliance

with

applicable

policies,

law

and

regulations;

devising

internal

compliance

programs

and

a

framework

to

review

and

assess

compliance

programs;

overseeing

sub-adviser

compliance

testing;

preparing

compliance

training

materials;

and

responding

to

regulatory

requests.

The

Board

further

considered

information

regarding

the

Adviser’s

business

continuity

and

disaster

recovery

plans

as

well

as

information

regarding

its

information

security

program,

including

presentations

of

such

program

provided

at

a

site

visit

in

2022,

to

help

identify

and

manage

information

security

risks.

In

addition

to

the

above

functions,

the

Board

considered

that

the

Adviser

also

provides,

among

other

things,

fund

administration

services

(such

as

preparing

fund

tax

returns

and

other

tax

compliance

services;

preparing

regulatory

filings;

interacting

with

the

Nuveen

funds’

independent

public

accountants

and

overseeing

other

service

providers;

and

managing

fund

budgets

and

expenses);

product

management

services

(such

as

evaluating

and

enhancing

products

and

strategies);

legal

services

(such

as

helping

to

prepare

and

file

registration

statements

and

proxy

statements;

overseeing

fund

activities

and

providing

legal

interpretations

regarding

such

activities;

maintaining

regulatory

registrations

and

negotiating

agreements

with

other

fund

service

providers;

and

monitoring

changes

in

regulatory

requirements

and

commenting

on

rule

proposals

impacting

investment

companies);

and

oversight

of

shareholder

services

and

transfer

agency

functions

(such

as

overseeing

transfer

agent

service

providers

which

include

registered

shareholder

customer

service

and

transaction

processing;

overseeing

proxy

solicitation

and

tabulation

services;

and

overseeing

the

production

and

distribution

of

financial

reports

by

service

providers).

The

Board

also

considered

the

quality

of

support

services

and

communications

the

Adviser

provided

the

Board,

including,

in

part,

organizing

and

administrating

Board

meetings

and

supporting

Board

committees;

preparing

regular

and

ad

hoc

reports

on

fund

performance,

market

conditions

and

investment

team

matters;

providing

due

diligence

reports

addressing

product

development

and

management

proposals;

and

coordinating

site

visits

of

the

Board

and

presentations

by

investment

teams

and

senior

management.

In

addition

to

the

services

provided,

the

Board

considered

the

financial

resources

of

the

Adviser

and

its

affiliates

and

their

willingness

to

make

investments

in

the

technology,

personnel

and

infrastructure

to

support

the

Nuveen

funds,

including

maintaining

a

seed

capital

budget

to

support

new

or

existing

funds

and/or

facilitate

changes

for

a

respective

fund.

Further,

the

Board

noted

the

benefits

to

shareholders

of

investing

in

a

fund

that

is

a

part

of

a

large

fund

complex

with

a

variety

of

investment

disciplines,

capabilities,

expertise

and

resources

available

to

navigate

and

support

the

Nuveen

funds

including

during

stressed

times.

The

Board

recognized

the

overall

reputation

and

capabilities

of

the

Adviser

and

its

affiliates,

the

Adviser’s

continuing

commitment

to

provide

high

quality

services,

its

willingness

to

implement

operational

or

organizational

changes

in

seeking,

among

other

things,

to

enhance

efficiencies

and

services

to

the

Nuveen

funds

and

its

responsiveness

to

the

Board’s

questions

and/or

concerns

raised

throughout

the

year

and

during

the

annual

review

of

advisory

agreements.

The

Board

also

considered

the

significant

risks

borne

by

the

Adviser

and

its

affiliates

in

connection

with

their

services

to

the

Nuveen

funds,

including

entrepreneurial

risks

the

Board

reviewed

as

well

as

The

Board

further

considered

the

division

of

responsibilities

between

the

Adviser

and

the

Sub-Adviser

and

recognized

that

the

Sub-Adviser

and

its

investment

personnel

generally

are

responsible

for

the

management

of

each

Fund’s

portfolio

under

the

oversight

of

the

Adviser

and

the

Board.

The

Board

considered

an

analysis

of

the

Sub-Adviser

provided

by

the

Adviser

which

included,

among

other

things,

the

assets

under

management

of

the

applicable

investment

team

and

changes

thereto,

a

summary

of

the

applicable

investment

team

and

changes

thereto,

the

investment

process

and

philosophy

of

the

applicable

investment

team,

the

performance

of

the

Nuveen

funds

sub-advised

by

the

Sub-Adviser

over

various

periods

of

time

and

a

summary

of

any

significant

policy

and/or

other

changes

to

the

Nuveen

funds

sub-advised

by

the

Sub-Adviser.

The

Board

further

considered

at

the

May

Meeting

or

prior

meetings

evaluations

of

the

Sub-Adviser’s

compliance

programs

and

trade

execution.

The

Board

noted

that

the

Adviser

recommended

the

renewal

of

the

Sub-Advisory

Agreements.

Based

on

its

review,

the

Board

determined,

in

the

exercise

of

its

reasonable

business

judgment,

that

it

was

satisfied

with

the

nature,

extent

and

quality

of

services

provided

to

the

respective

Funds

under

each

applicable

Advisory

Agreement.

B.

The

Investment

Performance

of

the

Funds

and

Fund

Advisers

In

evaluating

the

quality

of

the

services

provided

by

the

Fund

Advisers,

the

Board

also

received

and

considered

a

variety

of

investment

performance

data

of

the

Nuveen

funds

they

advise.

In

evaluating

performance,

the

Board

recognized

that

performance

data

may

differ

significantly

depending

on

the

ending

date

selected,

particularly

during

periods

of

market

volatility,

and

therefore

considered

the

broader

perspective

of

performance

over

a

variety

of

time

periods

that

may

include

full

market

cycles.

In

this

regard,

the

Board

reviewed,

among

other

things,

Fund

performance

over

the

quarter,

one-,

three-

and

five-year

periods

ending

December 31,

2021

and

March

31,

2022.

The

performance

data

was

based

on

Class

A

shares;

however,

the

performance

of

other

classes

should

be

substantially

similar

as

they

invest

in

the

same

portfolio

of

securities

and

differences

in

performance

among

the

classes

would

be

principally

attributed

to

the

variations

in

the

expense

structures

of

the

classes.

The

performance

data

prepared

for

the

annual

review

of

the

advisory

agreements

for

the

Nuveen

funds

supplemented

the

fund

performance

data

that

the

Board

112

Annual

Investment

Management

Agreement

Approval

Process

(Unaudited)

(continued)

received

throughout

the

year

at

its

meetings

representing

differing

time

periods.

In

its

review,

the

Board

took

into

account

the

discussions

with

representatives

of

the

Adviser;

the

Adviser’s

analysis

regarding

fund

performance

that

occurred

at

these

Board

meetings

with

particular

focus

on

funds

that

were

considered

performance

outliers

(both

overperformance

and

underperformance);

the

factors

contributing

to

the

performance;

and

any

recommendations

or

steps

taken

to

address

performance

concerns.

Regardless

of

the

time

period

reviewed

by

the

Board,

the

Board

recognized

that

shareholders

may

evaluate

performance

based

on

their

own

holding

periods

which

may

differ

from

the

periods

reviewed

by

the

Board

and

lead

to

differing

results.

In

its

review,

the

Board

reviewed

both

absolute

and

relative

fund

performance

during

the

annual

review

over

the

various

time

periods.

With

respect

to

the

latter,

the

Board

considered

fund

performance

in

comparison

to

the

performance

of

peer

funds

(the

“Performance

Peer

Group”)

and

recognized

and/or

customized

benchmarks

(i.e.,

generally

benchmarks

derived

from

multiple

recognized

benchmarks).

For

Nuveen

funds

that

had

changes

in

portfolio

managers

or

other

significant

changes

to

their

investment

strategies

or

policies

since

March

2019,

the

Board

reviewed

certain

tracking

performance

data

comparing

the

performance

of

such

funds

before

and

after

such

changes.

In

considering

performance

data,

the

Board

is

aware

of

certain

inherent

limitations

with

such

data,

including

that

differences

between

the

objective(s),

strategies

and

other

characteristics

of

the

Nuveen

funds

compared

to

the

respective

Performance

Peer

Group

and/or

benchmark(s);

differences

in

the

composition

of

the

Performance

Peer

Group

over

time;

and

differences

in

the

types

and/or

levels

of

any

leverage

and

related

costs

with

that

of

the

Performance

Peer

Group

would

all

necessarily

contribute

to

differences

in

performance

results

and

limit

the

value

of

the

comparative

information.

Further,

the

Board

recognized

the

inherent

limitations

in

comparing

the

performance

of

an

actively

managed

fund

to

a

benchmark

index

due

to

the

fund’s

pursuit

of

an

investment

strategy

that

does

not

directly

follow

the

index.

To

assist

the

Board

in

its

review

of

the

comparability

of

the

relative

performance,

the

Adviser

has

ranked

the

relevancy

of

the

peer

group

to

the

Funds

as

low,

medium

or

high.

The

Board

also

evaluated

performance

in

light

of

various

relevant

factors

which

may

include,

among

other

things,

general

market

conditions,

issuer-

specific

information,

asset

class

information,

leverage

and

fund

cash

flows.

In

relation

to

general

market

conditions,

the

Board

had

recognized

the

recent

periods

in

2022

of

general

market

volatility

and

underperformance.

In

their

review

from

year

to

year,

the

Board

Members

consider

and

may

place

different

emphasis

on

the

relevant

information

in

light

of

changing

circumstances

in

market

and

economic

conditions.

Further,

the

Board

recognized

that

the

market

and

economic

conditions

may

significantly

impact

a

fund’s

performance,

particularly

over

shorter

periods,

and

such

performance

may

be

more

reflective

of

such

economic

or

market

events

and

not

necessarily

reflective

of

management

skill.

Accordingly,

depending

on

the

facts

and

circumstances

including

any

differences

between

the

respective

Nuveen

fund

and

its

benchmark

and/or

Performance

Peer

Group,

the

Board

may

be

satisfied

with

a

fund’s

performance

notwithstanding

that

its

performance

may

be

below

that

of

its

benchmark

or

peer

group

for

certain

periods.

However,

with

respect

to

any

Nuveen

funds

for

which

the

Board

has

identified

performance

issues,

the

Board

monitors

such

funds

closely

until

performance

improves,

discusses

with

the

Adviser

the

reasons

for

such

results,

considers

whether

any

steps

are

necessary

or

appropriate

to

address

such

issues,

and

reviews

the

results

of

any

steps

undertaken.

The

Board’s

determinations

with

respect

to

each

Fund

are

summarized

below.

For

performance

of

the

Fund.

For

C.

Fees,

Expenses

and

Profitability

1.

Fees

and

Expenses

As

part

of

its

annual

review,

the

Board

considered

the

contractual

management

fee

and

net

management

fee

(the

management

fee

after

taking

into

consideration

fee

waivers

and/or

expense

reimbursements,

if

any)

paid

by

a

Nuveen

fund

to

the

Adviser

in

light

of

the

nature,

extent

and

quality

of

the

services

provided.

The

Board

also

considered

the

total

operating

expense

ratio

of

a

fund

before

and

after

any

fee

waivers

and/or

expense

reimbursements.

More

specifically,

the

Independent

Board

Members

reviewed,

among

other

things,

each

fund’s

gross

and

net

management

fee

rates

(i.e.,

before

and

after

expense

reimbursements

and/or

fee

waivers,

if

any)

and

net

total

expense

ratio

in

relation

to

those

of

a

comparable

universe

of

funds

(the

“Peer

Universe”)

and/or

to

a

more

focused

subset

of

comparable

funds

(the

“Peer

Group”)

established

by

Broadridge

(subject

to

certain

exceptions).

The

Independent

Board

Members

reviewed

the

methodology

Broadridge

employed

to

establish

its

Peer

Universe

and

Peer

Group

and

recognized

that

differences

between

the

applicable

fund

and

its

respective

Peer

Universe

and/or

Peer

Group

as

well

as

changes

to

the

composition

of

the

Peer

Group

and/or

Peer

Universe

from

year

to

year

may

limit

some

of

the

value

of

the

comparative

data.

The

Independent

Board

Members

take

these

limitations

and

differences

into

account

when

reviewing

comparative

peer

data.

The

Independent

Board

Members

also

considered

a

fund’s

operating

expense

ratio

as

it

more

directly

reflected

the

shareholder’s

costs

in

investing

in

the

respective

fund.

In

their

review,

the

Independent

Board

Members

considered,

in

particular,

each

fund

with

a

net

expense

ratio

of

six

basis

points

or

higher

compared

to

that

of

its

peer

average

(each,

an

“Expense

Outlier

Fund”)

and

an

analysis

as

to

the

factors

contributing

to

each

such

fund’s

higher

relative

net

expense

ratio.

Accordingly,

in

reviewing

the

comparative

data

between

a

fund

and

its

peers,

the

Board

generally

considered

the

fund’s

net

expense

ratio

and

fees

to

be

higher

if

they

were

over

10

basis

points

higher,

slightly

higher

if

they

were

6

to

10

basis

points

higher,

in

line

if

they

were

within

approximately

5

basis

points

higher

than

the

peer

average

and

below

if

they

were

below

the

peer

average

of

the

Peer

Group.

The

Independent

Board

Members

also

considered,

in

relevant

part,

a

fund’s

net

management

fee

and

net

total

expense

ratio

in

light

of

its

performance

history.

In

their

review

of

the

fee

arrangements

for

the

Nuveen

funds,

the

Independent

Board

Members

considered

the

management

fee

schedules,

including

the

complex-wide

and

fund-level

breakpoint

schedules,

and

the

expense

reimbursements

and/or

fee

waivers

provided

by

Nuveen

for

each

fund,

as

applicable.

The

Board

noted

that

across

the

Nuveen

fund

complex,

the

complex-wide

fee

breakpoints

reduced

fees

by

approximately

$72.5

million

and

fund-level

breakpoints

reduced

fees

by

approximately

$89.1

million

in

2021.

Further,

fee

caps

and

waivers

for

all

applicable

Nuveen

funds

saved

approximately

an

additional

$13.6

million

in

fees

for

shareholders

in

2021.

With

respect

to

the

Sub-Adviser,

the

Board

also

considered,

among

other

things,

the

sub-advisory

fee

schedule

paid

to

the

Sub-Adviser

in

light

of

the

sub-advisory

services

provided

to

the

respective

Fund

and

comparative

data

of

the

fees

the

Sub-Adviser

charges

to

other

clients,

if

any.

In

its

review,

the

Board

recognized

that

the

compensation

paid

to

the

Sub-Adviser

is

the

responsibility

of

the

Adviser,

not

the

Funds.

114

Annual

Investment

Management

Agreement

Approval

Process

(Unaudited)

(continued)

The

Independent

Board

Members

noted

that

(a)

the

Dividend

Value

Fund,

Large

Cap

Select

Fund,

Mid

Cap

Value

Fund,

Small

Cap

Growth

Opportunities

Fund,

Small

Cap

Select

Fund

and

Small

Cap

Value

Fund

each

had

a

net

management

fee

and

a

net

expense

ratio

that

were

below

the

respective

peer

averages;

and

(b)

the

Mid

Cap

Growth

Opportunities

Fund

had

a

net

management

fee

and

a

net

expense

ratio

that

were

in

line

with

the

respective

peer

average.

Based

on

its

review

of

the

information

provided,

the

Board

determined

that

each

Fund’s

management

fees

(as

applicable)

to

a

Fund

Adviser

were

reasonable

in

light

of

the

nature,

extent

and

quality

of

services

provided

to

the

Fund.

2.

Comparisons

with

the

Fees

of

Other

Clients

In

determining

the

appropriateness

of

fees,

the

Board

also

considered

information

regarding

the

fee

rates

the

respective

Fund

Advisers

charged

to

certain

other

types

of

clients

and

the

type

of

services

provided

to

these

other

clients.

With

respect

to

the

Adviser

and/or

the

Sub-Adviser,

such

other

clients

may

include:

retail

and

institutional

managed

accounts

advised

by

the

Sub-Adviser;

hedge

funds

or

other

structured

products

managed

by

the

Sub-Adviser;

investment

companies

offered

outside

the

Nuveen

family

and

sub-advised

by

the

Sub-

Adviser;

foreign

investment

companies

offered

by

Nuveen

and

sub-advised

by

the

Sub-Adviser;

and

collective

investment

trusts

sub-advised

by

the

Sub-Adviser.

The

Board

further

noted

that

the

Adviser

also

advised,

and

the

Sub-Adviser

sub-advised,

certain

exchange-traded

funds

(“ETFs”)

sponsored

by

Nuveen.

The

Board

recognized

that

the

Sub-Adviser

was

an

affiliated

sub-adviser

and,

with

respect

to

affiliated

sub-advisers,

the

Board

reviewed,

among

other

things,

the

range

of

fees

assessed

for

managed

accounts,

hedge

funds

(along

with

their

performance

fee),

foreign

investment

companies

and

ETFs

offered

by

Nuveen,

as

applicable.

The

Board

also

reviewed

the

fee

range

and

average

fee

rate

of

certain

selected

investment

strategies

offered

in

retail

and

institutional

managed

accounts

advised

by

the

Sub-Adviser,

the

hedge

funds

advised

by

the

Sub-Adviser

(along

with

their

performance

fee)

and

non-Nuveen

investment

companies

sub-advised

by

certain

affiliated

sub-advisers.

In

considering

the

fee

data

of

other

clients,

the

Board

recognized,

among

other

things,

that

differences

in

the

amount,

type

and

level

of

services

provided

to

the

Nuveen

funds

relative

to

other

types

of

clients

as

well

as

any

differences

in

portfolio

investment

policies,

the

types

of

assets

managed

and

related

complexities

in

managing

such

assets,

the

entrepreneurial

and

other

risks

associated

with

a

particular

strategy,

investor

profiles,

account

sizes

and

regulatory

requirements

will

contribute

to

the

variations

in

the

fee

schedules.

The

Board

recognized

the

breadth

of

services

the

Adviser

had

provided

to

the

Nuveen

funds

compared

to

these

other

types

of

clients

as

the

funds

operate

in

a

highly

regulated

industry

with

increasing

regulatory

requirements

as

well

as

the

increased

entrepreneurial,

legal

and

regulatory

risks

that

the

Adviser

incurs

in

sponsoring

and

managing

the

funds.

Similarly,

with

respect

to

foreign

funds,

the

Board

recognized

that

the

differences

in

the

client

base,

governing

bodies,

distribution

jurisdiction

and

operational

complexities

would

also

contribute

to

variations

in

management

fees

of

the

Nuveen

funds

compared

to

those

of

the

foreign

funds.

Further,

with

respect

to

ETFs,

the

Board

considered

that

certain

Nuveen

ETFs

were

passively

managed

compared

to

the

active

management

of

other

Nuveen

funds

which

also

contributed

to

the

differences

in

fee

levels

between

such

Nuveen

ETFs

and

the

actively-managed

funds.

In

general,

higher

fee

levels

reflect

higher

levels

of

service

provided

by

the

Adviser,

increased

investment

management

complexity,

greater

product

management

requirements,

and

higher

levels

of

business

risk

or

some

combination

of

these

factors.

The

Board

further

considered

that

the

Sub-Adviser’s

fee

is

essentially

for

portfolio

management

services

and

therefore

more

comparable

to

the

fees

it

receives

for

retail

wrap

accounts

and

other

external

sub-

advisory

mandates.

The

Board

concluded

the

varying

levels

of

fees

were

justified

given,

among

other

things,

the

inherent

differences

in

the

products

and

the

level

of

services

provided

to

the

Nuveen

funds

versus

other

clients,

the

differing

regulatory

requirements

and

legal

liabilities

and

the

entrepreneurial,

legal

and

regulatory

risks

incurred

in

sponsoring

and

advising

a

registered

investment

company.

3.

Profitability

of

Fund

Advisers

In

their

review,

the

Independent

Board

Members

considered

information

regarding

Nuveen’s

level

of

profitability

for

its

advisory

services

to

the

Nuveen

funds

for

the

calendar

years

2021

and

2020.

The

Board

reviewed,

among

other

things,

the

net

margins

(pre-tax)

for

Nuveen

Investments,

Inc.

(“Nuveen

Investments”),

the

gross

and

net

revenue

margins

(pre-

and

post-tax

and

excluding

distribution)

and

the

revenues,

expenses

and

net

income

(pre-

and

post-tax

and

before

distribution

expenses)

of

Nuveen

Investments

from

the

Nuveen

funds

only;

and

comparative

profitability

data

comparing

the

operating

margins

of

Nuveen

Investments

compared

to

the

adjusted

operating

margins

of

certain

peers

that

had

publicly

available

data

and

with

the

most

comparable

assets

under

management

(based

on

asset

size

and

asset

composition)

for

each

of

the

last

two

calendar

years.

The

Board

also

reviewed

the

revenues,

expenses

and

operating

margin

(pre-

and

post-tax)

the

Adviser

derived

from

its

ETF

product

line

for

the

2021

and

2020

calendar

years.

In

reviewing

the

profitability

data,

the

Independent

Board

Members

recognized

the

subjective

nature

of

calculating

profitability

as

the

information

is

not

audited

and

is

dependent

on

cost

allocation

methodologies

to

allocate

corporate-wide

overhead/shared

service

expenses,

TIAA

(defined

below)

corporate-wide

overhead

expenses

and

partially

fund

related

expenses

to

the

Nuveen

complex

and

its

affiliates

and

to

further

allocate

such

expenses

between

the

Nuveen

fund

and

non-fund

businesses.

The

Independent

Board

Members

reviewed

a

description

of

the

cost

allocation

methodologies

employed

to

develop

the

financial

information,

a

summary

of

the

history

of

changes

to

the

methodology

over

the

years

from

2010

to

2021,

and

the

net

revenue

margins

derived

from

the

Nuveen

funds

(pre-tax

and

including

and

excluding

distribution)

and

total

company

margins

from

Nuveen

Investments

compared

to

the

firm-wide

adjusted

operating

margins

of

the

peers

for

each

calendar

year

from

2012

to

2021.

The

Board

had

also

appointed

four

Independent

Board

Members

to

serve

as

the

Board’s

liaisons,

with

the

assistance

of

independent

counsel,

to

review

the

development

of

the

profitability

data

and

to

report

to

the

full

Board.

In

its

evaluation,

the

Board,

however,

recognized

that

other

reasonable

and

valid

allocation

methodologies

could

be

employed

and

could

lead

to

significantly

different

results.

The

Independent

Board

Members

also

reviewed

a

summary

of

the

key

drivers

that

affected

Nuveen’s

revenues

and

expenses

impacting

profitability

in

2021

versus

2020.

115

In

reviewing

the

comparative

peer

data

noted

above,

the

Board

considered

that

the

operating

margins

of

Nuveen

Investments

compared

favorably

to

the

peer

group

range

of

operating

margins;

however,

the

Independent

Board

Members

also

recognized

the

limitations

of

the

comparative

data

given

that

peer

data

is

not

generally

public

and

the

calculation

of

profitability

is

subjective

and

affected

by

numerous

factors

(such

as

types

of

funds

a

peer

manages,

its

business

mix,

its

cost

of

capital,

the

numerous

assumptions

underlying

the

methodology

used

to

allocate

expenses

and

other

factors)

that

can

have

a

significant

impact

on

the

results.

Aside

from

Nuveen’s

profitability,

the

Board

recognized

that

the

Adviser

is

a

subsidiary

of

Nuveen,

LLC,

the

investment

management

arm

of

Teachers

Insurance

and

Annuity

Association

of

America

(“TIAA”).

Accordingly,

the

Board

also

reviewed

a

balance

sheet

for

TIAA

reflecting

its

assets,

liabilities

and

capital

and

contingency

reserves

for

the

2021

and

2020

calendar

years

to

consider

the

financial

strength

of

TIAA.

The

Board

recognized

the

benefit

of

an

investment

adviser

and

its

parent

with

significant

resources,

particularly

during

periods

of

market

volatility.

The

Board

also

noted

the

reinvestments

Nuveen,

its

parent

and/or

other

affiliates

made

into

its

business

through,

among

other

things,

the

investment

of

seed

capital

in

certain

Nuveen

funds

and

continued

investments

in

enhancements

to

technological

capabilities.

In

addition

to

Nuveen,

the

Independent

Board

Members

considered

the

profitability

of

the

Sub-Adviser

from

its

relationships

with

the

Nuveen

funds.

In

this

regard,

the

Independent

Board

Members

reviewed,

among

other

things,

the

Sub-Adviser’s

revenues,

expenses

and

net

revenue

margins

(pre-

and

post-tax)

for

its

advisory

activities

to

the

respective

funds

for

the

calendar

years

ended

December

31,

2021

and

December

31,

2020.

The

Independent

Board

Members

also

reviewed

a

profitability

analysis

reflecting

the

revenues,

expenses

and

revenue

margin

(pre-

and

post-tax)

by

asset

type

for

the

Sub-Adviser

for

the

calendar

years

ending

December

31,

2021

and

December

31,

2020

and

the

pre-

and

post-tax

revenue

margins

from

2021

and

2020.

In

evaluating

the

reasonableness

of

the

compensation,

the

Independent

Board

Members

also

considered

any

other

ancillary

benefits

derived

by

the

respective

Fund

Adviser

from

its

relationship

with

the

Nuveen

funds

as

discussed

in

further

detail

below.

Based

on

a

consideration

of

all

the

information

provided,

the

Board

noted

that

Nuveen’s

and

the

Sub-Adviser’s

level

of

profitability

was

acceptable

and

not

unreasonable

in

light

of

the

services

provided.

D.

Economies

of

Scale

and

Whether

Fee

Levels

Reflect

These

Economies

of

Scale

The

Board

considered

whether

there

have

been

economies

of

scale

with

respect

to

the

management

of

the

Nuveen

funds

and

whether

these

economies

of

scale

have

been

appropriately

shared

with

the

funds.

The

Board

recognized

that

although

economies

of

scale

are

difficult

to

measure

and

certain

expenses

may

not

decline

with

a

rise

in

assets,

there

are

several

methods

to

help

share

the

benefits

of

economies

of

scale,

including

breakpoints

in

the

management

fee

schedule,

fee

waivers

and/or

expense

limitations,

the

pricing

of

Nuveen

funds

at

scale

at

inception

and

investments

in

Nuveen’s

business

which

can

enhance

the

services

provided

to

the

funds

for

the

fees

paid.

The

Board

noted

that

Nuveen

generally

has

employed

these

various

methods,

and

the

Board

considered

the

extent

to

which

the

Nuveen

funds

will

benefit

from

economies

of

scale

as

their

assets

grow.

In

this

regard,

the

Board

recognized

that

the

management

fee

of

the

Adviser

is

generally

comprised

of

a

fund-level

component

and

a

complex-level

component

each

with

its

own

breakpoint

schedule,

subject

to

certain

exceptions.

The

Board

reviewed

the

fund-level

and

complex-

level

fee

schedules.

The

Board

considered

that

the

fund-level

breakpoint

schedules

are

designed

to

share

economies

of

scale

with

shareholders

if

the

particular

fund

grows,

and

the

complex-level

breakpoint

schedule

is

designed

to

deliver

the

benefits

of

economies

of

scale

to

shareholders

when

the

eligible

assets

in

the

complex

pass

certain

thresholds

even

if

the

assets

of

a

particular

fund

are

unchanged

or

have

declined.

In

addition

to

the

fund-level

and

complex-level

fee

schedules,

the

Independent

Board

Members

considered

the

temporary

and/or

permanent

expense

caps

applicable

to

certain

Nuveen

funds

(including

the

amounts

of

fees

waived

or

amounts

reimbursed

to

the

respective

funds

in

2021

and

2020),

including

the

temporary

expense

caps

applicable

to

the

Funds.

The

Board

recognized

that

such

waivers

and

reimbursements

applicable

to

the

respective

Nuveen

funds

are

another

means

for

potential

economies

of

scale

to

be

shared

with

shareholders

of

such

funds

and

can

provide

a

protection

from

an

increase

in

expenses

if

the

assets

of

the

applicable

funds

decline.

As

noted

above,

the

Independent

Board

Members

also

recognized

the

continued

reinvestment

in

Nuveen’s

business.

Based

on

its

review,

the

Board

concluded

that

the

current

fee

arrangements

together

with

the

reinvestment

in

Nuveen’s

business

appropriately

shared

any

economies

of

scale

with

shareholders.

E.

Indirect

Benefits

The

Independent

Board

Members

received

and

considered

information

regarding

other

benefits

the

respective

Fund

Adviser

or

its

affiliates

may

receive

as

a

result

of

their

relationship

with

the

Nuveen

funds.

The

Independent

Board

Members

recognized

that

an

affiliate

of

the

Adviser

serves

as

principal

underwriter

providing

distribution

and/or

shareholder

services

to

the

open-end

funds.

The

Independent

Board

Members

further

noted

that,

subject

to

certain

exceptions,

certain

classes

of

the

Nuveen

open-end

funds

pay

12b-1

fees

and

while

a

majority

of

such

fees

were

paid

to

third

party

financial

intermediaries,

the

Board

reviewed

the

amount

retained

by

the

Adviser’s

affiliate.

In

addition,

the

Independent

Board

Members

also

noted

that

various

sub-advisers

(including

the

Sub-Adviser)

may

engage

in

soft

dollar

transactions

pursuant

to

which

they

may

receive

the

benefit

of

research

products

and

other

services

provided

by

broker-dealers

executing

portfolio

transactions

on

behalf

of

the

applicable

Nuveen

funds.

The

Board

noted,

however,

that

the

Sub-Adviser

reimburses

the

equity

funds

that

it

sub-advises

(subject

to

certain

exceptions)

for

the

research-related

component

of

soft

dollar

commissions.

In

addition,

the

Board

noted

that

any

benefits

for

a

sub-adviser

when

transacting

in

fixed-income

securities

may

be

more

limited

as

such

securities

generally

trade

on

a

principal

basis

and

therefore

do

not

generate

brokerage

commissions.

Based

on

its

review,

the

Board

concluded

that

any

indirect

benefits

received

by

a

Fund

Adviser

as

a

result

of

its

relationship

with

the

Funds

were

reasonable

and

within

acceptable

parameters.

F.

Other

Considerations

The

Board

Members

did

not

identify

any

single

factor

discussed

previously

as

all-important

or

controlling.

The

Board

Members,

including

the

Independent

Board

Members,

concluded

that

the

terms

of

each

Advisory

Agreement

were

reasonable,

that

the

respective

Fund

Adviser’s

fees

were

reasonable

in

light

of

the

services

provided

to

each

Fund

and

that

the

Advisory

Agreements

be

renewed.

Before he joined Leap Wireless International, Inc., Mr. Moschner was President of the Verizon Card Services division of Verizon Communications, Inc. from 2000 to 2003, and President of One Point Services at One Point Communications from 1999 to 2000. Mr. Moschner also served at Zenith Electronics Corporation as Director, President and Chief Executive Officer from 1995 to 1996, and as Director, President and Chief Operating Officer from 1994 to 1995.

Mr. Nelson is on the Board of Directors of Core12, LLC. (since 2008), a private firm which develops branding, marketing, and communications strategies for clients. Mr. Nelson has extensive experience in global banking and markets, having served in several senior executive positions with ABN AMRO Holdings N.V. and its affiliated entities and predecessors, including LaSalle Bank Corporation from 1996 to 2008, ultimately serving as Chief Executive Officer of ABN AMRO N.V.

During his tenure at the bank, he also served as Global Head of its Financial Markets Division, which encompassed the bank’s Currency, Commodity, Fixed Income, Emerging Markets, and Derivatives businesses.

Morgan Investment (from 2010 to 2016) and as President and Principal Executive Officer of the J.P. Morgan Funds (from 2013 to 2016). As Chief Operating Officer of J.P.

Morgan Funds, Mr. Young interacted with various service providers to these funds, facilitated the relationship between such funds and their boards, and was directly involved in establishing board agendas, addressing regulatory matters, and establishing policies and procedures. Before joining J.P. Morgan, Mr. Young, a former Certified Public Accountant (CPA), was a Senior Manager (Audit) with Deloitte & Touche LLP (formerly, Touche Ross LLP), where he was employed from 1985 to 1996.

ITEM 4. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES.

The following tables show the amount of fees that PricewaterhouseCoopers the Funds’ auditor, billed to the Funds’ during the Funds’ last two full fiscal years. The Audit Committee approved in advance all audit services and non-audit services that PricewaterhouseCoopers provided to the Funds, except for those non-audit services that were subject to the pre-approval exception under Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X (the “pre-approval exception”). The preapproval exception for services provided directly to the Funds waives the pre-approval requirement for services other than audit, review or attest services if: (A) the aggregate amount of all such services provided constitutes no more than 5% of the total amount of revenues paid by the Funds during the fiscal year in which the services are provided; (B) the Funds did not recognize the services as non-audit services at the time of the engagement; and (C) the services are promptly brought to the Audit Committee’s attention, and the Committee (or its delegate) approves the services before the audit is completed.
